• Profile and optimise rendering, memory, and asset pipelines to guarantee high fps across desktop and mobile.
• Debug and resolve client issues in collaboration with QA, driving toward bugfree, on-time releases.
• Regulatory Compliance

• Technical Leadership (Lead level)
• Conduct code reviews, define best practices, and mentor junior developers, fostering a culture of clean, maintainable code.
• Process & Tooling
• Enhance internal build, localisation, and deployment tools; explore and embed AI-powered solutions that raise productivity and quality (e.g., art upscaling, test automation, code generation).
